Right, tidy up time. Adios muchacos.

Last hospital day of 2025 completed yesterday. Ambulatory was very busy and all patients were upbeat. Probably as 2025 was a crap year for them and it is coming to an end. 🙂

A pheasant topped itself on the front grill of our car yesterday. Going to be £270 to replace the grill and recalibrate the radar sensor. Grrr! ☹️

Have a good day all.

Surprised not to see any CC members not on the new year honours roll. I thought @Drago would be a Sir at the very least.

He is a sir but they accidentally spelled it CUR.

I've been ineligible since I became a tax exile.

Bugger, you never thought that one through. 😁

My finances mean similar . Taxi exile.

And im not prepared to become a chum of Keir Stoma in order to receive an honour, so I guess my life of selfless service will be forever unrecognised.

My vote for a gong goes to @Dirk for selfless support of local pubs and restaurants with particular reference to those serving fish and chips.

I have just had my new driving licence delivered. It seems to indicate it lasts till 2029 but I thought we had to renew every 2 years ??

It's every three years Dave. Thanks to you I'm £50 better off. I keep my licence in a wallet I don't use much. Your post sent me off to check my expiry date..........there was 50 quid lurking in the wallet!

Temporarily in Mrs Tkk's good books when I mentioned heading to Thailand in February. Not so happy when I explained that I meant " Kipper Tie " land and we'd be visiting my sisters in Brum...
